[00:00.17]Searching for America - Janis Ian (珍妮斯·艾恩)
[00:00.96]Written by:Janis Ian
[00:01.67]Producer:Janis Ian
[00:02.41]
[00:22.27]Where have you been that made you weep
[00:24.67]
[00:27.40]And left these stains upon your cheek
[00:30.44]
[00:32.85]What did you see while you were gone
[00:35.40]
[00:38.14]That haunts your eyes this sunny dawn
[00:40.88]
[00:43.39]They herded us like so much meat
[00:47.14]
[00:48.67]Up from the sewers to the street
[00:51.54]
[00:53.95]Where concrete canyons stretched their walls
[00:57.59]
[00:59.07]So high it made us want to crawl
[01:02.30]
[01:04.50]Past proverbs writ on subway cars
[01:07.77]
[01:10.07]And in between the window bars
[01:12.80]
[01:15.30]We walked until the pavement bled
[01:18.71]
[01:20.67]And not a curse was left unsaid
[01:23.17]
[01:25.96]Into a place that knows no spring
[01:28.55]Where only steel and silver sing
[01:31.31]They made us dance until we dropped
[01:33.87]And the music of the jackhammers stopped
[01:37.39]
[01:43.50]I caught a cinder in my eye
[01:45.96]Searching for a patch of sky
[01:48.68]
[01:52.51]But the shadows drizzled down like in Pompeii
[01:56.42]That's how I spent my yesterday
[01:58.80]
[02:02.11]Searching for America
[02:05.95]
[02:07.24]In the rivets and the rust
[02:10.03]
[02:12.68]Searching for America
[02:16.32]
[02:18.19]Finding only dust
[02:20.52]
[02:24.72]What did you see that made you cry
[02:27.86]
[02:29.86]And left these track marks on your eye
[02:32.99]
[02:35.34]What did you find while you were there
[02:38.02]
[02:39.91]That sucks the light out of the morning air
[02:43.20]
[02:45.82]They gave us each a cropper's shack
[02:48.62]
[02:51.11]And land so hard it broke our back
[02:54.03]
[02:56.31]Then fed us' til our bellies burst
[02:59.85]
[03:01.68]On promises that died at birth
[03:04.28]
[03:06.79]So I lay the baby out each dawn
[03:10.31]
[03:12.79]In between the tender corn
[03:15.42]
[03:17.69]With sunrise for her bonnet
[03:20.23]
[03:22.95]And flies her only blanket
[03:24.93]
[03:28.39]We harvested until we bled
[03:31.26]'Til every single root ran red
[03:33.65]And when the work was finally done
[03:36.21]They gave our names to immigration
[03:41.31]
[03:46.08]I did not know how bad it hurt
[03:48.12]
[03:48.69]Until I lay there eating dirt
[03:50.82]
[03:55.05]And the cold seeped in between my bones
[03:59.32]That's where I was when I left home
[04:01.18]
[04:04.62]Searching for America
[04:08.81]
[04:10.01]All her dreams and hopes
[04:12.54]
[04:15.16]Searching for America
[04:20.71]Finding only ghosts
[04:22.92]
[04:48.58]Who are these people you have seen
[04:51.75]
[04:53.83]To dream this dark and distant dream
[04:56.54]
[04:58.93]To tell the stories you have told
[05:02.39]
[05:04.24]To leave these bruises on your soul
[05:07.23]
[05:09.50]They are the flesh they are the bone
[05:13.78]
[05:15.02]They are the very cornerstone
[05:18.69]
[05:20.24]They leave their mansions and their shacks
[05:23.12]
[05:25.49]To hide here in between the cracks
[05:28.23]
[05:30.76]Their hope is tattooed on my lips
[05:33.80]
[05:36.37]Bleeding from my fingertips
[05:39.20]
[05:41.21]They are crawling toward the promised land
[05:44.45]
[05:47.00]Hand over hand
[05:49.62]
[05:52.14]To walk until they run no more
[05:55.00]And wash up on some distant shore
[05:57.68]Where truth is not the enemy
[05:59.82]
[06:00.53]And whatever does not kill us sets us free
[06:05.23]
[06:08.99]Somewhere out there
[06:12.89]Are millions just like me
[06:15.40]
[06:19.70]Homesick for Eden
[06:23.14]Heartsick at the memory
[06:25.13]
[06:28.39]Searching for America
[06:31.71]
[06:33.79]In every stick and stone
[06:36.79]
[06:38.98]Searching for America
[06:43.69]
[06:45.09]Going home
[06:46.44]
[06:49.60]Searching for America
[06:54.73]
[06:55.76]Going home
[06:58.24]
[07:01.33]Yeah oh
